My daughter took lessons with Shannon for several years. Shannon provided great instruction and lots of encouragement to boost my daughter's confidence and raise her performance level. She provided music that my daughter actually enjoyed playing. My daughter was always challenged, but never discouraged. Shannon was always professional and pleasant, and ran her lessons on time.

Stephen May 11, 2017·Piano·In studio

Rina is a fabulous instructor. My son originally contacted Rina after researching piano teachers in our area. She came highly recommended and as a result he gave me a gift of five piano lessons to start. I became hooked; I've been with Rina for well over a year now and thoroughly enjoy learning. Her background in music is broad and she is creative in her approach to teaching.
The experience has been extremely rewarding for me and I look forward to continuing my journey into piano with Rina for many sessions to come.

Bonnie has been enthusiastic giving the class.
She has been understanding helping us with delays to join the class because of technical difficulties.

Jamie August 7, 2017·Oboe·Online

Bonnie did a great job with my daughter. She had just taken up the oboe during the school year and we wanted to keep up her skills during the summer. Bonnie was great helping my daughter learn additional oboe techniques that will help her when she returns to school. I was very impressed with Takelessons and the convenience of doing lessons in our own home. Bonnie was very flexible with our summer schedule too.

Lisa August 6, 2017·Piano·Online

Learning to play the piano with Bonnie has been great so far. I like the classical pieces she made for practice. Looking forward for more.

About Justin S.

For first-time students, I prefer to start out discussing the fundamentals of melody and rhythm within the context of the human voice. I will guide students at the beginner level through tone production, sight reading, and instrument basics. For intermediate students, I will focus on perfecting technique, developing repertoire, and preparing for auditions. For advanced students, I will focus on developing virtues specific to individual long-term goals.

About Justin

My approach to music education is one that puts musical expression first and then applies technique as appropriate to an individual's virtues. Oboe in particular is an instrument whose complexity lends itself to dogmatic approaches that can stifle individual growth. This is because the oboe is an instrument that requires constant fine tuning and adjustment, both of the instrument itself and the reeds that one plays. In this way, oboe is very much a craft, more than just a consumable product. As an expert in instrument adjustment and reed making, I can help students overcome the fundamental difficulties of playing oboe and focus on the most important aspect, which is making music.

I have a bachelor of music, master of music, and specialist degree in music education. I really enjoy teaching part time because music turned my life aro

und when I was struggling in middle school, helping me to become the best that I could be in all aspects of life.

About Jennifer K.

Take lessons filled with great energy and an encouraging environment for students of any level. Experienced teacher of 3 years, specializing in beginner/intermediate piano and oboe! All ages welcome. Lessons are customized and combined with learning skills of sight reading, music theory, and technique!

About Jennifer

I graduated in May 2017 from NYU with my bachelor's degree in oboe performance and have been teaching students for about 4 years. I began my musical training on the piano and attended the Manhattan School of Music Pre-College program for ten years studying Oboe and Piano before going on to NYU. I emphasize encouraging my students to explore what interests them about the music they are playing and understand the history that is behind the music. It is important to me to create a positive and supportive learning environment so that students can develop necessary musical skills and fundamentals of classical music, while also having a great time and enjoying what they are playing! I know how hard it can be practice and stay focused, so together we can create a customized practice schedule and see your skillsets begin to grow!
